The Motley Fool: Penny For Your Thoughts?

Q: Since I don't have much money, I'm interested in investing in stocks that cost only a few dollars each, at most. A $200 stock might look pricey, but if the company's shares are really worth $300 each, it's a bargain. In its recently reported fourth quarter, Microsoft's intelligent cloud segment sales increased 10 percent in constant currency to $6.7 billion and helped offset headwinds from a slowing PC business, resulting in overall year-over-year companywide revenue growth of 5 percent. Fueling that growth will be its Office 365 software subscription service and Azure, its app-building and management solution. Last quarter, commercial Office 365 sales surged 54 percent and Azure sales more than doubled from year-ago levels. The company should also enjoy sales and profit tailwinds from growth in its Surface laptops, Xbox Live and internet search businesses.
